Don’t Let Trump Whitewash the Truth About Jan. 6
The attempt to rewrite the narrative surrounding January 6th is a dangerous game. We all witnessed the events unfold, the violence, the blatant attempts to overturn a democratic election. The sheer audacity of it all is still breathtaking. To pretend it was anything less than a grave assault on American democracy is a disservice to the truth and a dangerous precedent for the future.
The claim that this was simply “over-excited patriots” is a gross misrepresentation. The meticulously planned schemes, the fake electors plot, the pressure on officials like Mike Pence—these weren’t impulsive actions.… Continue reading
South Korean investigators initiated the arrest of suspended President Yoon Suk Yeol at his Seoul residence, acting on an issued warrant. This follows Yoon’s failed attempt to impose martial law and subsequent impeachment. The arrest, if successful, would make Yoon the first sitting president to be detained, facing charges of insurrection, a crime carrying potentially severe penalties. Investigators have 48 hours to determine whether to formally charge him or release him. Tensions remain high as supporters clashed with police outside the residence.

Andy Kim’s concern that the events of January 6th have been “papered over” is understandable, given the lack of widespread accountability and the subsequent political landscape. The sheer scale of the attempt to overturn a democratic election, coupled with the violence at the Capitol building, should have resulted in far more significant consequences for those involved.
Instead, many feel that the issue has been largely ignored, or worse, minimized. The lack of severe repercussions for those who actively participated in or incited the events has created a troubling sense of impunity. This perception is further fueled by the continued presence of individuals linked to the insurrection in positions of power.… Continue reading
The claim that being an “acclaimed actor” places someone above the laws they choose to break feels audacious, bordering on delusional, particularly in the case of the “Bob’s Burgers” star known for his portrayal of Jimmy Pesto. The reality is that if you decide to take part in a violent insurrection, the consequences should follow regardless of your occupation or status. Johnston’s situation stands as a stark reminder that actions have repercussions, and attempting to evade accountability because of a perceived celebrity status only compounds the audacity of his actions.
It’s intriguing how he frames his legal troubles as the result of being targeted due to fame.… Continue reading
The idea that Donald Trump should ever be eligible for the presidency after January 6 is not only compelling; it is a necessary conversation we must have as a society. Reflecting on that day and its implications shakes me to my core. It wasn’t merely an unprecedented disturbance; it was an insurrection against the principles upon which this nation was built. If we allow someone who played a role in such a brazen attack on our democracy to run for office again, what does that say about our commitment to the very ideals of democratic governance? It scares me to think we could be heading towards a reality where actions that once would have been unequivocally condemned are instead normalized.… Continue reading
is calling Kamala Harris running against him a criminal act, then he must be looking in the mirror because he is the epitome of criminal behavior. The man who incited an insurrection at the Capitol, who tried to overturn a democratically held election, and who continuously spreads lies and misinformation is the one who should be labeled as the criminal. It’s almost laughable how he tries to deflect his own guilt onto others, especially someone as accomplished and honorable as Kamala Harris.
Trump disqualifying himself from running for president seems like a no-brainer at this point. His actions have proven time and time again that he is unfit to hold any position of power, let alone the highest office in the country.… Continue reading
Jack Smith’s latest win in Trump’s January 6 case brings a glimmer of hope to those seeking justice for the insurrection that unfolded at the Capitol. The legal battle, led by Trump’s team of Todd Blanche and John Lauro, has been one of delay tactics and cries of unfairness when faced with the reality of impending court proceedings. It’s almost ironic how swiftly justice can move when the playing field is level and the judge is not swayed by outside influences.
The 180-page brief presented by Smith promises to lay out the damning evidence against Trump in a clear and concise manner.… Continue reading
It’s time for accountability. The investigator claims to have “receipts” on Clarence and Ginni Thomas, and the American people are demanding action. The corruption and treason that have plagued our government cannot continue unchecked. We need to see the evidence, we need to see the consequences.
The fact that a Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas, is implicated in potential criminal and unethical conduct related to the insurrection on January 6th is alarming. His wife, Ginni Thomas, also faces scrutiny for her involvement in the attempt to subvert the 2020 election results. The conflict of interest is glaring, and the lack of consequences is unacceptable.… Continue reading
Here we have a story that showcases a prominent physician, someone who has spent over a decade in post-secondary education, only to throw it all away in a moment of blind loyalty to a man who doesn’t care about her or America. The physician in question was sentenced to 9 months in prison for assaulting a police officer during the Capitol riot. It’s truly mind-boggling to think about how someone who has dedicated their life to healing and caring for others could resort to such violent and seditious behavior.
The fact that this physician, at the age of 64, joined the insurrection and physically attacked a police officer is both shocking and deeply troubling.… Continue reading
As I read about Donald Trump hosting a gala to honor the participants of the January 6 insurrection, I am left feeling a myriad of emotions – shock, disbelief, anger, and sadness. It is absolutely horrid and beyond comprehension that a former President of the United States would stoop to such levels to praise individuals who were involved in an attack on our democracy.
The fact that Trump is celebrating those who stormed the Capitol, resulting in deaths and injuries, is a clear indication of where his loyalty lies. By hosting this event, he is not only condoning but glorifying political violence and insurrection.… Continue reading
